Support,

I am currently using the 15-day trial version of MobiOne. I have created a few .mobi screens (forms) such as frmMain.mobi, frmList.mobi for iOS app, and I am able to move between these screens.

I am currently trying to build a math-related app. I found a sample file called sum.mobi though a link on your web site. I’ve made a few changes to this file, and I am able to run the file in the Test Center. The math seems to work when i run the file all by itself. So, I renamed the sum.mobi to frmCalc.mobi via Save As, then on my frmList.mobi form, and I have added a Form Action to show the frmCalc.mobi form when I select a specific list item on the mrmList.mobi form. The frmCalc.mobi form does show, but the form does not calculate any results.

I should also point out that I am completely NEW – AKA – Beginner – to JavaScript. I do have a little experience with VB6 but that’s as far as it goes.

Please offer any suggestions with respect to this issue.

Thanks in advance

Hi mereade,

Please see this explanation for a similar question: http://www.genuitec.com/support-genuitec/viewtopic.php?p=6485#p6485

In a nutshell you should move/copy your javascript code from your math_custom.js to main_custom.js (I don’t know that is your main screen). Let me know how it goes for you.

Good Morning Support,

Well, i have tried moving the code from the calc.mobi form to the main.mobi screen and I am still unable to get the calculation to work when the run the app from the main.mobi form.

If I run the app from the calc.mobi only form, all seems well.

Where exactly would I need to insert the code from calc.mobi into main.mobi.

Like trying to learn any new programming language, there is bound to be a fews glitches along the way.

Thanks for your patience.

Support,

While waiting to hear back from you, I continued work play with the coding to get my form to calculate the results. In doing so, I realized that I had not modified the following code:

Var arg1 = parseFloat($(‘#m1-sum-arg1Field’).val (), 10);

The change was to replace “sum” with the name of the form (ie: “calc”) so the code in the main.mobi form would calculate the results on the calc.mobi form.

So for now, all is well, I am winding down the 15 day trial period and it looks promising that I will purchase Mobione at the end of the trial period.

I must say, although this seemed very intimidating at first, it is just a matter of following a few procedures to get things to work. And, the Mobione Design/Test Centers is a excellent platform to WYSIWYG platform for creating apps. Kudos!
